Cecil is a caterpillar. Cecil is my FRIEND!
The last time I saw Cecil, he was THIS big.

I said "Good morning Cecil. What have you been
doing today?" and Cecil said "I've been eating
a bit of a cabbage leaf."

Continue with Cecil eating his way through a field
of cabbages, all the cabbages on the farm, in the
county, country, world and finally universe, and
growing each time, to arms' length etc. and finally
the full width of the campfire circle, indicated by the
storyteller running "from HERE to HERE!"
